Gene(s) and individual feeding behavior: Exploring eco‐evolutionary dynamics underlying left‐right asymmetry in the scale‐eating cichlid fish Perissodus microlepis

The scale‐eating cichlid fish Perissodus microlepis is a textbook example of bilateral asymmetry due to its left or right‐bending heads and of negative frequency‐dependent selection, which is proposed to maintain this stable polymorphism. The mechanisms that underlie this asymmetry remain elusive. S...
